Chapter 648： Prepare early
Compared with the happy unicorn culture, Jiahe has a mixed meaning.
They made a big profit of $ 250,000 in "Avatar", but this is an investment and not the result of their own work.
But their job, the "Slayer" that was first released in the United States in late August and was expected by many people, was a hit on the street, and it was very powerful.
It has been released for nearly three weeks. The box office of "Killer" is only 80 million US dollars. The theater in the United States has notified them that it will not be screened for the fourth week, but will be released directly.
Where Golden Harvest can work hard, there will be the Asian and European markets in January.
This is a very big shame for the ambitious Zou Wenhuai.
If we only talk about the US box office, their share is only 30 million US dollars, and their promotional expenses in the United States alone are 10 million US dollars. So far, the total investment has been 90 million US dollars, not including Asia. 1oo million dollars to promote the budget.
This means that Golden Harvest still needs 270 million US dollars, which is about 120 million Hong Kong dollars at the box office, to smooth out expenses and achieve income balance.
But this is basically impossible!
Cheng Long has the appeal, but it is just a new star that has just slowly risen. It can be used in Xiangjiang to get 150 million box office, Japan and South Korea 20 million box office, Europe 20 million box office, and the rest of the 3 million box office. incredible.
What's more, after the movie "Killer" was released in the United States, the reputation was so poor that Jiahe didn't have much confidence, and directly lowered the other box office's income expectations to 60 million Hong Kong dollars, which meant that it might be a loss of 60 million.
With a windfall in "Dreaming of the Treasure", the loss of 6ooo million is no big deal, but Zou Wenhuai was slapped hard in the face of career expansion.
Especially after Xiangjiang's newspaper disclosed this matter, Zou Wenhuai felt that he had no face.
It was clearly said that he would go to Hollywood to show his fists, but the first shot was dumb, and it was a shameful word of mouth and lost at the box office.
How many years has Golden Harvest suffered from this setback in Xiangjiang?
It seems that the water in the United States is really not ordinary deep!
Humiliation returns to humiliation, but the immediate problem must be solved.
That's what to do next for "Avatar"
It is expected that after the US goes offline at the end of September, it will be released in other parts of the world including Xiangjiang in January.
Whether it's going to be released on such a large scale, or whether to make some changes, these are the things that Zou Wenhuai and Jiahe's senior leaders need to consider.
During the meeting, Cheng Long was the first to say, "Uncle Huai, Godfather, Brother Chang, I have long said that the group of Hollywood **** are unreliable, but you want me to be patient, right now? People do n’t look like people, ghosts do n’t look like ghosts, they do n’t please people everywhere! Bai spent so much thought, and Bai let them make so much money! "
Where Cheng Long has his smoothness after 5o at this time is purely a firecracker.
When filming the movie, he endured it for a long time before he choked on this breath. Now he saw that the results were not good enough and jumped out immediately.
Of course, he is not an offense who is not mindless. He ca n’t wait to get off the ground. He is also fighting for more power for his next movie.
He Guanchang is Cheng Long ’s godfather, and Wen Yan naturally nodded his head, "Brother Huai, we also discussed this before. At that time, you said that maybe the East and the West have different concepts. We want us to imagine the big director of Hollywood . But now it seems that they are not very reliable! Not only did they not please the North American audience, I think even the essence and characteristics of Aaron are lost, it ’s just a little different! "
Cai Yongchang also said, "Yeah, I know now, it is better to find a director or a big director. For example, Spielberg, such as Lucas, these are really guaranteed. Those two three Flowing, really invited, it ’s better not to invite, people in Hollywood, have looked down on us, our tolerant swallow, but got this result ... "
Zou Wenhuai also frowned.
He didn't think these three people were pushing the palace, but reflecting on himself.
He was originally a person who returned from studying abroad and admired the American film industry.
But it seems that some of my own ideas are still in error.
At least American famous directors are not necessarily so reliable.
In other words, because they are the funds of Xiangjiang, they are more casual, and regard the filmmakers of Xiangjiang as colonial.
However, he is not silly to send money to others, but there is no other good director to respond to him before. Those big directors have been caught by major film companies very firmly, and there is no way to invite them.
So Zou Wenhuai came up with a trick to buy horse bones and wanted Hollywood to see his sincerity.
At that time, he thought that as long as the box office did not lose money, nothing else was required.
I didn't expect the box office to be more than ordinary, it was a loss to home, and it really hit his enthusiasm seriously.
"Okay, you don't have to say this anymore, let's solve the matter in front of me first." Seeing Zou Wenhuai also had a gloomy face, as his old man, He Guanchang changed the topic, "Along, what do you have? idea?"
"I think we can change some bridges!" Cheng Long thought about it before he came. "Let's go to the United States again and invite those actors. Some of the plots can be modified, and they will be greatly modified. Then take this version Play it elsewhere, maybe it will be better. "
"Who is responsible for the revision?" He Guanchang asked.
"I!"
Cheng Long was unwilling to say, "I know the script in the most detailed way. I also gave him some opinions on the set, but he didn't listen at all. Now it turns out that at least he is wrong, why not follow my method, let's change it , At least not worse than before? "
Cai Yongchang agreed with Cheng Long's statement, "Along is good, he already has talent, it is better to give him a chance to let him modify it, anyway, there is still enough time. Anyway, at least in Asia Aron should not miss his taste. "
Seeing them all say this, Zou Wenhuai pondered for a while, and finally nodded, "Come on, Achang, take Along with you, I will give you 20 million first, not enough .... No need to say anything more, at least to earn back word of mouth in Asia. "
Zou Wenhuai is worthy of killing the decisive owl, and he immediately decided not to say that he actually took $ 2oo million for this money-losing product.
Seeing Zou Wenhuai like this, Cheng Long nodded again and again, "Relax, Uncle Huai, I will definitely work hard!"
"It's not too late, you go back and prepare for it. In the past two days, you will contact a good person and prepare to set off." Zou Wenhuai said.
"Yes, then I will go first."
Cheng Long left with a happy face, and He Guanchang followed him to discuss with him, only Cai Yongchang was left by Zou Wen.
After being silent for a while, Zou Wenhuai raised his head and said to Cai Yongchang, "Ayong, you stayed in touch with Yin Jun during this time."
"Huh? What's wrong?" Cai Yongchang said stunned.
"If Along's film fails in Asia and even Xiangjiang, we will go to Yin Jun to buy a good script." Zou Wenhuai gritted his teeth and said, "No matter how expensive you are, he will be asked to give us a foothold in Europe and America." Good script! "
"This one……"
Cai Yongchang blinked his eyes and said, "Brother Huai, is this necessary? Yin Jun has the patience, he can still eat the taste of a quasi-foreigner 100%? Don't spend our money, but it is worse than this time, That's bad! "
"will not!"
Zou Wenhuai said, "I have the exact news. Yin Jun gave Spielberg a script. He is now making this movie. Spielberg is said to like it very much."
"Oh! Can we step in?" Cai Yongchang immediately thought of investment.
"No, the investment in this movie has already been determined. Without our share, Yin Jun doesn't want us to intervene." Zou Wenhuai said, "The script that can make Spielberg very emotional is definitely not simple. You think of Yin Jun's precise vision in "Stealing Treasures", and you know that he is really a genius, a genius rarely seen in the movie and television field for decades! "
Listening to Zou Wenhuai's evaluation of Yin Jun so high, Cai Yongchang was not surprised.
He thought so too.
With Yin Jun's script never failing, it has surprised and admired countless people.
Cai Yongchang sees more. If it is the same category, or even two or three categories, it is remarkable, but it is definitely not a genius.
Genius is something that can be handed in regardless of category, and it guarantees success.
Yin Jun began to write scripts, whether ancient or modern, case-breaking or hilarious, shooting or gambling, ethical dramas or patriotic feelings ... Every movie and TV series he can touch people's hearts, Resonating people, this looks like an insider, is a very remarkable thing.
Anyone who knows the industry now has only one word to evaluate Yin Jun.
genius.
An 18-year-old boy does not have any social experience. It is absolutely impossible to rely on his own efforts ~ www.novelhall.com ~ to achieve such a degree. It must be that God has given him outstanding talents to have such a talent. which performed.
"But don't worry about asking him for a script." Zou Wenhuai said, "If the box office in other parts of" Killer "can add up to 70 or 80 million Hong Kong dollars, then we are not too failed. Plus there is The cooperation of "Police School" will certainly not be greatly affected. "
"What if" Killer "is worse than expected?" Cai Yongchang couldn't help asking.
"Then we must get the best script!" Zou Wenhuai clenched his fists. "Jiahe must be the best film company in Xiangjiang. We must be stronger than others! With Yin Jun's script, we not only need to Asia is resurgent, and it is necessary to find face in the United States! "
"Or Along?" Cai Yongchang asked hesitantly.
After this blow, Cai Yongchang felt that Cheng Long's image and characteristics were not suitable for Hollywood.
However, Zou Wenhuai did not hesitate, "Along is a very special actor, and he is very good at learning, and his age is not playing. We must push him now! I believe Yin Jun will also produce a script suitable for him. . "
Seeing him insisting so much, Cai Yongchang could only choose to obey, "Well, I will communicate with Yin Junduo, hoping to have a good cooperation."
Cai Yongchang did not say whether "Killer" could turn over.
Everyone in Golden Harvest has watched a film. It is not that Cai Yongchang despised it. It is really based on Cai Yongchang ’s decades of experience that he simply cannot see what suits Hong Kong people.
Films made by American chief creatives cannot be successful in the United States. How can they be successful in Xiangjiang?
Do you really think that everyone is Spielberg?
